ONE OF A FOUR-BOOK COLLECTION SPOTLIGHTING CLASSIC ARTICLES
The best original research findings and reviews in the field of electrode technology
Highlighting some of the most important findings and insights reported over the past five decades, this volume features original research papers and reviews on electrode technology for aluminum production published from 1963 to 2011. The papers have been divided into three subject sections:
* Part 1, Hall-Héroult Cell Carbon Anodes, includes anode raw materials, anode production, and anode performance.
* Part 2, Hall-Héroult Cell Cathodes, includes reduction cell materials and reduction cell failure mechanisms.
* Part 3, Inert Anodes and Wettable Cathodes, includes materials and performance.
Each section has a brief introduction and a list of recommended articles for researchers interested in exploring each subject in greater depth.
Papers for this volume were selected from among more than 1,100 articles published between 1963 and 2011 in Light Metals. Selection was based on a rigorous review process. Among the papers, readers will find landmark original research findings and expert reviews summarizing current thinking on key topics at the time of publication.
From basic research to advanced applications, the articles published in this volume collectively represent a complete overview of electrode technology. It will enable students, scientists, and engineers new to the field to gain a quick introduction to the state of the technology. Moreover, it will enable more experienced practitioners to advance their own research and take full advantage of the latest technology and applications.
This compilation is the most comprehensive historical collection of papers written on primary aluminum science and technology. It is a definitive reference in the field of aluminum production and related light metals technologies and contains a strong mix of materials science and practical, applied technology. Written for materials scientists and engineers, metallurgists, mechanical engineers, aerospace and automobile engineers, electrical and electronics engineers, this volume is a valuable resource for the global aluminum and light metals industries.
